When I was drafting my post I had to look up the name because I knew it was something Shakespeare. Young Shakespeare, whatever. (Shakespeare in Love)

It's a movie that no one remembers.

Forrest Gump was definitely a worthy movie, and honestly, Pulp Fiction was pretty tough competition as well. But Shawshank is about as perfect a movie as you could craft.

Didn't win a single Oscar. I guess it didn't have friends in the right places.
